Lexi's surgery tomorrow

[FlDebra]

I will definitely add my prayers for Lexi's surgery tomorrow and a speedy recovery thereafter! My son is also having surgery today (Tuesday -- I am an insomniac again!). He is getting two repairs done to his shoulder -- college football injury. So I will be praying for a lot of surgeon's skill and the good Lord's healing touch for both my son and little Lexi!

I know it is scary for our little ones to go into surgery -- but as long as you have a good experienced vet, she should have no problems. She will be better than new! When you take her home the day of surgery, do not be frightened to hear her cry. After Ben's neutering, it broke my heart to hear him cry like a human baby! It was the first time I had heard that. I called the vet back 3 times! Just wanted to make sure. By the morning of day 3, he was all back to normal. Hope Lexi has a smooth recovery too!

You and your sweet little Lexi are in my heart and prayers. I know I will be thinking about the two of you all day, and I will be very relieved when you post that she is home back in your arms. I know she's going to be fine, but it doesn't stop me from wishing she didn't have to go through this. Lexi will be healed very soon, and she will probably be even more loved than ever before, if that is even possible. Her teeth are going to shine, and that's also going to be great for her health. My love to you, and please give Lexi some extra kisses this morning from me.

Deb, I can understand how worried you are over your son's shoulder surgery, but no doubt, he will be fine and have a fast recovery. The youngsters recover in no time, and the old guys like me take forever. Football Players are so tough they do not need Parachutes to Jump out of planes. They hit the ground running. I iwll say the same to you as I do to my wife.....RELAX, but I know you won't.

Thanks so much Lisa and Lexi says thanks for the kisses she loves kisses. It means so much to have everyone think of Lexi and keep her in your prayers...I am so blessed to have such great YT friends...so thanks again.
Lexi is home and doing good I can tell she is a little sore but that is understandable...It breaks my hubby and my heart to see her little brown eyes look at us to do something as she just doesn't understand. I called the vet and he wanted me to give her a pain med tonight and not wait until tomorrow. Hugs to you Cheryl & Lexi I think the pain med is helping as she is laying down and she couldn't before

I honestly can't thank everyone enough for all your thoughts and prayers for our little Lexi. We are blessed to have Lexi in our life and she is loved so very much. We were a mess this morning to say the least and I didn't think I would make it. Longest morning of our life... The vet called at 11:00 am to tell us Lexi was doing fine and coming around. He said we could pick her up at 4:00pm and we were there a few minutes early (well quite a few minutes early) I was so happy to see that little face and those beautiful brown eyes. She was wide a wake and her tail was just a waggin..I know she was happy we were there to bring her home. All went well with the surgery got all our instructions and asked a million questions poor vet. Her teeth cleaning went well but he did have to pull one tooth poor baby she is so young wish she didn't have to lose a tooth but he said it was loose..she had a lot of plaque so we will have to work on that to keep them clean. Had to call the vet tonight as Lexi was very uncomfortable and running away from her own self and crying I could tell her incision was hurting as she couldn't even lie down. He had me start her pain meds. and now she is sleeping nicely...poor baby. Anyways sorry for going on and on...Thanks so much again to everyone for all your thoughts and prayers I know they helped Lexi and I today get through this and I honestly and touched and couldn't be more thankful to all of you.
Hugs Cheryl & Lexi

Lexi's kisses went straight to my heart. I am so happy that the surgery went well and am relieved that it is over. It hurts so much to see someone you love so dearly in pain, and I know how difficult this is for you. I also know how confusing it is for our babies when they are hurting and don't understand why. I've found that the pain medication can be confusing for them also, and I am so glad that it is easing some of her pain. Once she no longer needs to take it, she will be in less pain, but you will see her acting more like herself without the medication. Lexi is so loved, and she has her mom and dad's loving arms to protect and comfort her. I hope that Lexi heals quickly and that you are able to rest easier now. Lexi is so blessed to have you and your husband. I know how grateful you are having such a precious and special little girl in your life. You and Lexi will be in my heart, thoughts, and prayers.

Oh! I'm so glad it's over and Lexi is home with mommy and daddy. I totally understand about showing up really early. I do the same thing.

Thanks -- I am finally relaxed now that it is over! Dustin did well with his surgery too! All repaired & now the healing can begin! He is really a tough young man! He turned down a nerve block they offered that would have given him better after surgery pain relief. He said he did not like the sound of needles in his neck. I told him, if it was me, I would take all the pain relief they offered. But he is his own man already. But if he turns down a parachute when he is jumping out of a plane..... I am going to put an end to this football thing! I am afraid that might mean one too many concussion!

Wishing both Lexi and Dustin a speedy recovery! Cheryl, I just knew you would be early to pick her up! I know how worried you were -- they are our babies too! Please give that sweet baby girl an extra kiss from me & my pups! I bet she will feel a lot better tomorrow but maybe not completely herself. But come Thursday -- she will probably be feeling great and you will be having to keep her from jumping off the furniture! Take care and get some rest!
